前曼聯中場球員福瓊相信紅魔新援馬蒂奇能夠仿效前切爾西球星馬克萊萊，成為老特拉福德的中場守護神。

球員時代，福瓊曾經與馬克萊萊交過手。在後腰的位置上，馬克萊萊有著出色的閱讀比賽能力以及極高的工作效率，這為他贏得眾多的讚譽以及冠軍榮譽。

在本菲卡以及切爾西陣中，馬蒂奇同樣以防守強悍著稱。紅魔主帥穆里尼奧對馬蒂奇一直有很高的評價，同時也很了解馬蒂奇的優勢。

馬蒂奇正隨隊出征都柏林，有望在紅魔今夏的2017季前賽之旅的最後一場比賽，對陣桑普多利亞時首次為紅魔披掛上陣。

福瓊對此表示：「他是一名非常優秀的球員。了解英超比賽的人，當然包括我們的主教練，他很了解馬蒂奇，也深信馬蒂奇能夠填補卡里克的位置。對於我們這支隊伍，他是一個完美的補充。我真的很期待看到像他這樣的一名球員，能夠成為我們後衛線前的一道屏障。他是這個角色的完美人選，就像馬克萊萊，與此同時，他也能夠在比賽的各個環節上為球隊做出貢獻。」

「他真的是一名非常強壯的球員，能增強球隊的實力，讓我們在新賽季里有更大的奪冠機會，所以我很期待要在今晚的比賽中看到他的身影，看看他的臨場表現。」

Former Manchester United midfielder Quinton Fortune believes Nemanja Matic can be the Reds' answer to ex-Chelsea star Claude Makelele.

Fortune competed against Makelele during their time in the Premier League and the Frenchman made a deep-lying position his own, with his intelligent and selfless work drawing widespread praise.

Matic was converted into a more defensive midfield role at Benfica and thrived in various systems under Jose Mourinho and Antonio Conte at Stamford Bridge. Mourinho is a huge admirer of his third summer signing and clearly views him as a vital cog in his machine.

With the Serbian in the travelling squad and available to make his debut in Dublin against Sampdoria in the final game of Tour 2017, presented by Aon, all eyes will be on the Aviva Stadium this evening [Wednesday].

Fortune, who is with MUTV to cover the game live, told ManUtd.com: "He's a very good player. Someone knows the Premier League and, obviously, the manager knows him so he is someone who can fill in for Michael Carrick.

"He's a fantastic addition to the team and I'm really looking forward to someone who can screen in front of the back four. He plays the role perfectly, like a Claude Makelele role, and, at the same time, can play as well.

"He is a really, really strong player who strengthens the squad and gives us a better chance of winning the league this season. So I am excited to see if he's involved tonight and how he does."
